This Election Day, YOU MADE HISTORY. Again.
The story of the last seven years is the story of hundreds of thousands of good-hearted people across America waking up, meeting up, signing up, training up, and rising up into an unstoppable army of activists.
The day after Trumpās pathetic inauguration, the massive worldwide Womenās March showed us how, in the pain that united us, we could find a new strength.
In 2018, people from all walks of life learned how to volunteer and organize, and it WORKED. Our Blue Wave flipped the House by 40 seats. Proof of concept.
In 2020, we expelled the abomination from the White House and held onto the House. On January 5th, 2021, defying all odds in a Georgia Miracle, we won the Senate too.
Trumpās answer was to lead an insurrection to end our democracy. He failed. But MAGA Republicans continue the attack on voting rights and democracy itself nationwide, and in June ā22, the Trump Supreme Court overturned Roe.
In November 2022, history gave us a 93% chance of devastating losses. We beat those odds. We turned what was supposed to be a Red Wave into more of a rosƩ spritz.
And now, in 2023, we flipped the Wisconsin Supreme Court in April ā we defeated MAGA cheating in Ohio in August ā and just now, we struck a mighty blow for democracy.
In Kentucky, we re-elected Democratic Gov. Beshear by five points.
In Ohio, we enshrined permanent abortion rights in the state constitution in a 13-point landslide. And legalized marijuana by 14 points.
In Virginia, we won both houses of the state legislature, saving abortion rights and voting rights, and quashing the presidential ambitions of Gov. Youngkin, a MAGA wolf in a sheep's sweater vest.
In every one of these battles, the new Democratic voters you helped register were critical to margins of victory.
YOU DID THIS, every volunteer and volunteer staff member. YOU DID THIS, every donor and fundraising party host. YOU DID THIS, every partner organization on the ground, and every national partner who Field Team 6 has the honor to support. This victory is yours.
What you did mattered.
Your caring got others to care.
Your love changed history.
If this isnāt an epic redemption song for democracy, I donāt know what is.
If you are not heroes, I donāt know who is.
And if this doesnāt give you hope for 2024, I donāt know what will.
Letās gooooooo!!!!

CAN YOU HOST A FIELD TEAM 6-MAS PARTY?
If we want to win it all in ā24, we need to register all the Democrats we can ā and to do that, we need to raise funds and awareness of Field Team 6! Thatās why founder Jason Berlin is hellbent on holding 20 friend-raiser meetings on Zoom by the end of the year!
Can you host one of these 20 meetings? Just think of one to five friends (thatās it!) who are engaged in politics and might want to help, pick a date (or two), and weāll set up a Zoom! Jason will do a 10-minute pitch for Field Team 6, our achievements, our ā24 plans, and how you and your friends can help by donating (or volunteering), and will answer all questions. And thatās it! A meeting usually lasts 30 minutes.
These awareness-raising, fundraising meetings meetings can turbocharge Field Team 6 for 2024, all before the holiday break! Can you help? Email us HERE with "FT6-MAS ZOOM PARTY" in the subject, and weāll be eternally grateful!

DEMOCRATS ABROAD: LET'S GET THEM A FLYER AND REGISTER A BUNCH TO VOTE
Did you know that there are 4.8 million Americans living abroad, 3 million of voting age? Did you know that lots of them are likely Democrats and arenāt registered or don't know they can vote?
Because you might know someone who is an expat, weāve created a downloadable, printable and shareable flyer for all of your friends to hand out at Parisian expat parties, or post in Indonesian laundry rooms frequented by Americans... or? Find it HERE and send it to every American you know with a passport (who's living outside the states).

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14: LET'S REGISTER ARIZONA!
Did you know we texted 63,000 Virginians on Election Day? That's the mighty power of the Text Arcade. If you pony up $25 you get to send 1400 texts. Waaaaay cheaper than postcarding (1400 would cost about $1302!). So come on down, grab a ticket and let's text unregistered, likely Democrats in Arizona next! Tuesday, November 14 from 3p PT. Sign up HERE
Oh, and we're having another Text Arcade on Sunday, November 19 to text all of our target California districts, but because of our amazing partnership with Civic Sundays it's already sold out! Boom!

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14: WE'RE SITTING ON GOLD!
Field Team 6 loves teaming with other progressive organizations. Weāve partnered with Sister District, Georgia NOW, NY for Biden/Harris, Indivisible, Swing Left, Blue CD02 NM, GDHQ, Progress North, VolunteerBlue.org, and so many more, but thatās only the beginning. With more partners, we can do so much more!
Why are partnerships so important? We've got mountains of data on unregistered, likely Democrats, and we can use that to help other organizations ā for free ā to run textbanks, phonebanks, postcarding, email campaigns, social media storms, and in-person voter drives. When we team up, our outreach grows exponentially, and we can register more Democrats, in more swing states, to win more elections in all-important 2024.
Sound good? It does to us too! So click HERE to join us Tuesday, November 14 from 12p PT, and together, let's make magic happen!

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30: CALL PEOPLE WHO LOVE US
Volunteers are our lifeblood! Sometimes we need to call them to whisper sweet reminders. This new, weekly re-engagement phonebank is to call BYOP textbankers who haven't texted in a while, and have them rejoin our improved BYOP program! Our Big Vision: get 1,000 people sending 100 free texts a day, so we are sending 100,000 free texts a day. At that rate, in 2 months we reach all 6 million people with cellphones in our database. Sign up HERE ā it's Thursday, November 30 at 1p PT.

WE ARE SO CLOSE! WHOāS GOT AN ANDREW JACKSON?!
In the 2020 cycle, we had emails for over 2.3 million people to whom we couldn't afford to reach out. That's one hell of a missed opportunity. Thereās good news on top of good news:
1st: WE JUST BLEW BY OUR GOAL TO RAISE $11,741.60 TO SEND ONE EMAIL TO EACH OF THEM!
2nd: WEāRE JUST $20.90 AWAY FROM OUR GOAL TO RAISE ENOUGH TO SEND A SECOND EMAIL TO ALL OF THEM!
The second email only costs a quarter penny each! Our stretch goal is to raise a total of $17,612.40 (and we've raised $17,591.50 to date!) so we can get to them all twice!
So please click HERE to push us over the top! (Anything over $20 will go to buying more emails for '24!) And a huge shout out to super-volunteer Patti Crane for suggesting this program when she heard how many emails we had, how effective they were, and how cheap they are to send! Wowsa!

BlueVoterGuide.org, our secret turnout weapon, has helped over 75,000 voters to supercharge their ballots to date. Not bad for a one-year old!
